To all inkom t may concern l .o

Be it known that LALrHoNsnJ. 4Gosse-V LIN, a citizen of the -United States, residing at Rochester, in thecounty of Monroe and State Yof NewV York, have invented certain 1 new and usefulv Improvements -injBroilers,

of which the following is a specification,

The object of this invention is to provide aqnew and `improved ltype oflbroilerL for broiling or roasting meat in an oven.

one of them can be used as a making pan cakes, etc. w

These and other objects ofthis invention will be fully illustrated in the drawing, de-' scribed in the specification and pointedvout inthe claims at the end thereof.

In the accompanying drawing: .i

Figure `l is a perspective view ofthe broiler.

FigureY 2 is a vertical sectional view=of the broiler, the-section beingrtaken Yon'the line2"-'- F ofFigure-1 Figure 3 is a detail perspective view 'of the dripping pan ofthe broiler as it will close proximity'of the flame of thefire-.to quickly and evenly-Sear the meat` and then lower the meat away ,from the flame to Y finish the-gbroiling ofv the'meat slowly and .evenly to get the best results. it ris advantageous,V when theY meat can be To do this' moved away from the flame in a horizontal plane into a less intensely heated spot of the oven in order to prevent one vpart of the meat from searing or broiling to a greater extent than any other part thereof.

The broiler forming the subject matter of my present invention Ais made up of the dripping pan l and the broiling pan 2. For the purpose of supporting the broiling pan above the dripping pan, the latter is provided with'the threaded sternV 3 which is Vmounted centrally of the pan' and is riveted thereto in any suitable manner. The broiling pan in turn is provided with a threaded socket 4c into which the Vstein 3 is threaded.

. V thus provided inthe `channels t jth'emeat juices collected by them are al,

The threaded engagement l.of the stemBwith the socket 4 provides a vertical adjustment` between the dripping pan and the broiling pan which takes'pla-'ce when the' broiling pan is revolved` over the drippingv pan.A During the rotation ofthe broiling pan in either the one 'or-the other direction ,the socket4 thereof is'screwed either up or down 'on' the-stem 3 of the 'dripping' panr and when y Vplaced inthe oven the broiling pan moves either toward or Vaway from, the llame of I theburner under this Voperation.A f n. The broiling pan2 andthe dripping pan are preferably made upl in theform of; sheet "metal stampings to which .thesocketA- and L:

stemr 3 are. suitably riveted as heretofore vpointed out. The broilingpan ,has-va' short flange 5 formed thereon which encircles 'the edge of,v the panA and slightly projectsV above also formed the concentric' channels 6 and ,7 which are connected with each other yby the radial Y channels ,8,2 v9, Y10 and ll. At the f junction of each of the `'radial channels with the concentricchannel a holel2 is punched. jvr

pan. series of eightholes areV into. the

rough which lowed to 'drip down Ainto the dripping pan.

whichitzis located during the face thereof. On the Vface of the pan are i Y,

. To handle the broiler al handle lnis proi vided. This .handle ,is inthe form of.

irregularshaped bail as shown. in perspective in. FigureA l.l This bail hasy the vertical straight section` Mformed at one siderof the bail while the remainder ofthebailis` curved down toward the other end thereof. Each` end ofthe Abail is turned inwardly?V with thev short .upwardly Vprojecting` exten-v sions ,15 "and 16 formed thereon.` These extensions areadapted vto project into a Vpair of the holes provided in thev broiling pan from the under side thereof and when en` gaged in thesev holes in this manner the broiler will balance on the bail. Y

VFor the purpose of placing the broiler into the oven, the broiler is handled by taking hold 0f thestraight vertical Side o-f the bail .in the 'manner in which an ordinary pan having a handleon one side isjplaced therein. VAfter the broiler is ,placed in the oven, the bail is disengaged fromthe broil-" ing pan by lowering the handle so that the l upturned extensions l5 and 16 disengageY themselves from the holes in the p-an and allow t-he lower'V ends of the bail to be'with- Yio ' The broiling drawn fromunder the pan. `This operation is reversed when the bail Nis to, be attac-hed" to take the broiler out of the oven.Y

' In usingthe broiler to. broil Vmeat7 ther meat is placed on top Vof the bi'oiling pan.

volving it until the meat has beenbrought as close to the dame-as is desirable. The meat can then be seared evenly by turning the-pan so vthat the heat vfrom the burner is 1 directedr to' all parts Vthereof with the saine intensity. After this is done the pan Y' may be lowered by revolving the Ybroiling pan inthe opposite direction' until a point is reaehedwhere the heat from the burner Y v'operates to slowly finish the broilingf of the v4Durin'gthe br'oiling of the ineat, `the meat juices which escape romthe meats-are oo llecvted Ain the concentric and radial channels' Y anddrip into the lower orl dripping'pan l..Y

Y. The drippings collected in this pan are used 'to make Vthe gravy 'and when the broiler VisA taken 'from the ovenV the dripping l*pan Y is tilted ley-means ot the handle 13. Yand the meat juicesare lpoured out of the spout 17 formed thereon.
